does that mean that if your software is 'hidden behind a paywall' i am allowed to distribute it freely once i get to it?

I'm not going to weigh in on copy/pasting this specific article, but in more general terms, I like the approach used by LWN -
Subscribers get access to articles, and can choose where to share them.

I don't write software.
But if I owned the WSJ (or any publication) and a subscriber shared an article here-and-there on a forum I personally wouldn't be mad. Perhaps doing so would even lead to more subscribers.

That is probably why you don't own WSJ.

You can disagree with my stance, but your comment here is pretty rude in my opinion.

Maybe they were a little rude, but they have a point ... you just went and infringed on the WSJ's copyright just to score internet points.
Just my own opinion, but I wish mods would delete posts that did such things.
